Cymatics: A Study of Wave Phenomena & Vibration Hans Jenny
Publisher: Macromedia Press
Our awareness of auditory phenomenon is just the compression and decompression of air waves pushing into our ear canals, but the precise quality of our experience is created by our brain. Hans Jenny (1967) wrote Kymatik (translated Cymatics), in which he explored periodic phenomena and the visual display of sound by vibrating various media with simple sine waves, produced by a function generator and fed to a piezo-electric In Cymascope.

In 1967, Jenny published the first volume of Cymatics: The Study of Wave Phenomena. But are our ears the only way to sense sound?
